When I published a post back in May, I mentioned the amount of rain and overcast skies that we were experiencing in Helsinki. Two months later and I can report that we’ve hardly seen those grey skeins since. It’s been all sun and it is starting to show in the parks, these naturally green spaces have turned yellow. I’m surprised my garden box hasn’t turned to ash yet. I am finding it hard to focus on knitting, especially when that project is a wool and mohair sweater sitting on your lap. We’re due for some rain this week, we need it badly, so I’ll get back to it again. If it wasn’t so hot and humid, I’d be thinking of more knitting. This latest design is something I see myself living in this autumn and winter.
